The name of `-fdeclare-opencl-builtins` becomes a bit non-intuitive, a more intuitive name would be something like `-fopencl-tablegen-builtins` perhaps or `-fopencl-fast-builtins` if we don't want to mention TableGen.  But since it is still an experimental option, I have no objections against postponing the renaming until the option has reached maturity.
